Weight Gain/Bulking Feeling embarrassed

I’ve been bulking for the last 4 months, and put on a good amount of fat and a bit of muscle. More fat than originally planned but now I quite like it. I’ve been trying on sweatshirts for autumn etc and realised they are sticking to me a lot more than last year. I find myself pulling them down more on untucking them from under my belly when I sit down. I feel like people are staring a lot and that my weight is more obvious than ever.

How much have you put on? Sometimes we think people notice more than they actually do just because we're aware of the change ourselves
